September 8th - Bench

Normally would squat on this day, but we had a particularly brutal day of PT on the Friday prior to this session that really smoked my legs. I figured that since I'm only training twice a week, flipping around which order I hit things in shouldn't be that big of a deal.

5 Second Eccentric Bench Worked up to 8x2 at 355. Felt like I was getting a handle on the amount of strain and tension that goes into decently heavy tempo benching after this session.

Illegal Wide Grip Bench Press (feet up) 245x10 255x10 265x9, 1 shy of the goal Normally would've done DB pressing here, but I had to train at a Globo Gym due to a schedule conflict and the dumbbells only went up to 90 lbs and were all being used. Go figure. These did the job though.

DB 6 Ways 3x10 @ 15 lbs 2x1 @ 20 lbs

Weighted Dips 4x10, used a dip belt instead of chains and worked up to BW+55 on my 2nd set.

Reverse Grip Pushdowns superset w/ Reverse Cable Curls 50 reps total

Leg Raises 5x10, slowest negatives possible
